I am using the csv package to parse a compressed .csv.gz file. So far
its working perfectly fine but it fails when I have a missing value in
on of the fields.

For example, I have this

Abc,def,,jkl

Is it possible to fill the missing column with a null?

I want,
Abc,def,NULL,jkl

TIA
========================
Ideally you need to test each field for a zero length and put at least a single space in any that are BEFORE porting to another format.

If you are going to a fixed field format (SDF) then place that field's width spaces into the SDF field.

In any case, DO NOT USE NULLS! There are many programs that will crash on them.
